Mark Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, has revealed his ideal wedding gift for his star player, Luka Doncic.

During the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, Cuban was asked about what he would give Doncic as a wedding gift, and he did not disappoint. Given their close relationship and Doncic's immense talent, it came as no surprise that Cuban's gift idea aimed high.

Doncic recently proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Anamaria Goltes, marking a significant milestone in his personal life. Now, as they plan their wedding, the couple is likely wondering what gifts their high-profile friends will present to celebrate the occasion.

However, for Cuban, giving money might not be the most creative option, considering he already gave Doncic a lucrative contract extension worth $207 million two years ago. While attending the NBA Summer League, Cuban has been actively involved in watching the games and engaging with the media.

When Brad Parker from The Score approached him and asked about the wedding gift, Cuban initially deflected the question, stating that he had yet to decide. However, when pressed further, Cuban came up with the perfect answer: "A championship." The Dallas Mavericks missed the playoffs in the previous season, despite Doncic's exceptional performance.

Recognizing the need for change, Cuban, along with Nico Harrison and Jason Kidd, made significant moves during the offseason. They re-signed Kyrie Irving, signed Seth Curry, acquired promising rookies Dereck Lively II and O-Max Prosper through the draft, and initiated a sign-and-trade deal for Grant Williams from the Boston Celtics.

However, Cuban knows that to fulfill his ideal wedding gift to Doncic, the Mavericks need to first become a playoff team again. With the offseason moves and potentially more to come, Cuban hopes to surround his star player with even better talent. If successful, Cuban's gift of a championship might be delayed but not entirely out of reach.

In summary, Mark Cuban, the owner of the Dallas Mavericks, has set his sights high for his ideal wedding gift to Luka Doncic. Despite already giving him a massive contract extension, Cuban aspires to gift Doncic with a championship.

The Mavericks' front office has been active in the offseason, making significant changes to improve the team's performance. While the road to a championship may be challenging, Cuban remains optimistic that his ideal gift will eventually become a reality.
